Less hot, still humid. Definitely “Fall” weather coming, but still plenty hot in the afternoon. I barely broke a sweat cutting the grass yesterday. That was a nice change.
Spent the day catching up on auction stuff. It’s funny how it goes in waves. Sometimes I see a ton of stuff I need/want. Sometimes there is little. Sometimes you see an item in a several unrelated auctions, sometimes you go years without seeing a particular thing. There are a few things I’d still like to get more of.
Generators. Solar panels, charge controllers, inverters, and batteries. Water treatment. Unfortunately, EVERYONE wants those things at the moment. Same for wind generators, building materials, and construction equipment. There’s always something more to stack. Especially when you have as many projects going on as I do.
Plan today is pickups. I only got a few items but they are at different auctioneers. So I’ll be making a big loop today. Organizing storage would be good too.
Wife is still work from home, but both kids should be back in class today. That should cut down on my distractions. Suddenly time is flying by again. I’ve got foundation guys starting in about two weeks, if everything stays on schedule. I should be meeting with them on site to do their final walk thru before starting any day now, but I haven’t heard from them. Add that to my list for today, I guess.
Speaking of lists, make some. Think hard about what you still need to get to help you through bad times. Make an actual list. Then work on getting those items or skills. Small engine repair? 3d Printer? Gardening class? Roto-tiller? Couple of acres in the country? Canning jars and lids? Seeds? Fertilizer? Goats? You know your needs better than I do. Do what makes sense for you and yours.
And stack the stuff high.
